[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
                C
She came in the bedroom
               F
Looking like a photograph
                   Dm
Turned to face the window
Moonlight traced the
 G
contours of her back
                 C
And only she can see me
                   F
Shed the skin that guards
 the man
                 Dm
Sheltered by the ceiling
                      G
This is the start and end
of everything

[Pre-Chorus]
                C
So, we'll go it alone
                   F
'Cause no one will understand
                         Dm
How this just feels like flying
Here within the confines
         G
 of your bed
                 G
How beautiful we blend
[Chorus]
             C    G    F
Crashing in, head then heels
             C    G    C
Crashing in, head then heels
             C    G    F
Crashing in, head then heels

[Verse 2]
           C
Unrequited love songs
                 F
Longing words we used to sing
                      Dm
Your faith was in the first one
                 G
We opened up our hearts
 to let them in
                        C
Now all these scars are keloids
(These scars are)
                  F
Reminding us and cautioning
 (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
                 Dm
Rebuild what was destroyed
(Rebuild what was destroyed)
              G
Turn it, then chapter
can begin (Ahh)

[Pre-Chorus]
                C
So, we'll go it alone
                   F
'Cause no one will understand
                         Dm
How this just feels like flying
Here within the confines
         G
of your bed
                 G
How beautiful we blend

[Bridge]
                  C
And, together, we soar
              F
High over the old wasteland
                   Dm
And we escaped the fire
Planted roots when there
             G
 was nothing left
                 G
How beautiful we blend

[Chorus]
             C    G    F
Crashing in, head then heels
             C    G    C
Crashing in, head then heels
             C    G    F
Crashing in, head then heels
             F    G    C
Crashing in, head then heels
(Woah, woah, woah)

[Outro]
             C    G    F
Crashing in, head then heels
             C    G    C
Crashing in, head then heels
             C    G    F
Crashing in, head then heels
             F    G    C
Crashing in, head then heels
